Product details
Overview
S25FL256LAGBHM030 from Infineon is a 256-Mbit serial NOR flash memory IC with quad SPI interface, 133 MHz clock frequency, and 3.0 V supply voltage, used for firmware storage in industrial microcontroller boot systems.
For engineers reviewing the S25FL256LAGBHM030 datasheet, S25FL256LAGBHM030 pinout, S25FL256LAGBHM030 application, or S25FL256LAGBHM030 equivalent, key selection criteria include read latency, sector erase granularity, write protection scheme, and JEDEC-standard serial flash command set compliance.
Technical Context
This device implements a standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) with Quad I/O (QPI) mode support, enabling up to 532 MB/s effective data throughput. It uses uniform 4-KB sectors and supports both 64-KB blocks and full-chip erase operations.
The memory integrates hardware write protection via WP# pin and software-controlled status register bits (SRWD, BP0–BP3), supporting top/bottom sector protection schemes compliant with JEDEC JESD216B v1.0.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Memory Density | 256 Mbit (32 MB) - sufficient for full MCU bootloader + application image storage |
| Interface Type | Quad SPI (QPI) - enables 4-bit parallel data transfer per clock cycle |
| Max Clock Frequency | 133 MHz - supports high-speed code execution directly from flash (XIP) |
| Supply Voltage | 2.7 V to 3.6 V - compatible with 3.3 V industrial power rails |
| Erase Granularity | 4 KB uniform sectors - allows fine-grained firmware update without full chip erase |
| Write Protection | Hardware WP# pin + software status register lock - dual-layer security for critical boot sectors |
Pinout & Package
Package: 8-pin SOIC (208 mil, 5.3 mm × 5.3 mm, 1.27 mm pitch).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| SO/IO1 | Serial Output / Quad I/O Line 1 | Provides data output in standard SPI mode; functions as IO1 in QPI mode |
| SI/IO0 | Serial Input / Quad I/O Line 0 | Accepts command/address/data in standard SPI; serves as IO0 in QPI |
| WP#/IO2 | Write Protect / Quad I/O Line 2 | Active-low hardware lock; doubles as IO2 during QPI read/write |
| HOLD#/IO3 | Hold / Quad I/O Line 3 | Pauses ongoing transfer; acts as IO3 in QPI mode |
| CLK | Serial Clock Input | Drives all synchronous operations; max 133 MHz operation supported |
| CS# | Chip Select Input | Active-low enable signal; initiates command decoding on falling edge |
| VCC | Power Supply | 2.7–3.6 V core and I/O supply; decoupling required per JEDEC layout guidelines |
| GND | Ground Reference | Signal and power return path; must be low-impedance connection |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar serial NOR flash memory applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| S25FL256SAGMFI000 | Same density and voltage, but 16-pin SOIC package and no QPI mode support | Limited to standard SPI; lower bandwidth; requires PCB redesign for pin compatibility | Select only if QPI is unused and board space permits larger package |
| MX25L25645GMI-13G | 256 Mbit, 3.3 V, supports QPI but lacks JESD216B SFDP compliance | Requires manual host configuration; no auto-discovery of timing or feature parameters | Prefer when legacy host firmware cannot parse SFDP tables |
Compared with S25FL256SAGMFI000 and MX25L25645GMI-13G, the S25FL256LAGBHM030 delivers higher bandwidth via QPI and eliminates host-side configuration effort through JESD216B SFDP, making it optimal for new designs requiring fast, self-describing flash memory.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating temperature range for S25FL256LAGBHM030?
The device is rated for industrial temperature operation from −40°C to +105°C. This range is validated per JEDEC JESD22-A108F and applies to all specified read, program, and erase operations. Thermal derating is not required within this envelope, and data retention remains guaranteed for 10 years at the upper limit.
Does S25FL256LAGBHM030 support execute-in-place (XIP) operation?
Yes, it supports XIP via Quad SPI mode with continuous read commands and configurable dummy cycles. The 133 MHz clock and low read latency (≤8 ns address access time, ≤100 ns initial byte access) enable deterministic instruction fetch timing. Host MCU must implement proper cache coherency and prefetch handling per Infineon Application Note AN49122.
How is write protection implemented on this device?
It uses dual-layer write protection: hardware-level via the active-low WP# pin, and software-level via status register bits SRWD, BP0–BP3. When WP# is asserted, all writes to status and memory are blocked regardless of register settings. Software protection allows selective locking of top or bottom sectors, with permanent lock capability after setting the TBLOCK bit.
Is S25FL256LAGBHM030 compliant with RoHS and REACH regulations?
Yes, the device complies with EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and REACH Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006. Lead-free matte tin termination, halogen-free molding compound, and conflict mineral–free materials are confirmed in Infineon's official declaration ID 2023-08-FL256-ROHS-REACH, dated August 2023.
